Why a green kitchen? A conventional kitchen contains toxic cleaning products, petroleum-based plastics, inefficient appliances and many disposable, non-sustainable items that can be harmful to your health and to the health of the planet.

A green kitchen is stocked full of sustainable, non-toxic accessories, cleaning supplies, appliances and goods which reduce waste and improve the health of our families and our environment.

More information on greening your kitchen:
Green Home recommends replacing items made from virgin plastic and wood with those made from bamboo, recycled glass, and recycled paper.

Maximizing the energy-efficiency of your appliances is one of the most significant and long-lasting changes you can make to your kitchen. Exchanging your current refrigerator for the Sun Frost energy efficient model will greatly reduce your energy bill.

How much kitchen waste do you dispose of each day? Our NatureMill Pro Composter will compost kitchen scraps instead of sending them to the landfill.
